Grammy winning R&B legend Mýa is proving that timeless soul still hits different in 2026 with her new single “ASAP,” released January 30. The song arrives like a savvy love note and emotional wake up call wrapped in smooth ’80s-tinged production she co-crafted with Lamar “MyGuyMars” Edwards and co-writer Vince Berry.
“ASAP” is classic R&B vibes updated for today’s Gen Z and millennial playlists. On the track Mýa calls for honest connection when things get messy in romance. The chorus isn’t just catchy, it’s basically therapy set to rhythm: “We gotta talk, yeah we gotta ASAP,” she sings, demanding clarity and vulnerability without shame.
This single isn’t an isolated flex. It’s part of a broader era where Mýa has balanced nostalgia and reinvention. Last year brought emotionally reflective tunes like “Face to Face” and funky celebration tracks like “Give It to You,” showing off her range from introspection to dancefloor bliss.
What makes this era extra intriguing is how Mýa operates as an independent artist on her Planet 9 label. She gets to make music on her terms, connect deeply with lifelong fans, and honestly express her growth over a career that spans nearly three decades and legendary moments like the Grammy winning “Lady Marmalade” collaboration.
“ASAP” isn’t just a new R&B single. It’s a bold reminder that Mýa’s artistry still evolves, still resonates, and still demands attention. If you care about truth, groove, and soul that feels lived in, this one’s already on repeat.
